[Solved] What is the use of for in python [closed]

Question

for is used to loop through the defined variable s, which in this case is a string containing letters, digits (numbers), and whitespace (spaces, tabs etc.).

First time:

' Abs3 asdasd asd11 111 11ss'
 ^

As we can see, the first character of the string is: “” (space).
The code goes on to test if “” is a letter (isalpha) or if it is a digit (isdigit). In this first case, it is neither and the for loop continues with the next character:

' Abs3 asdasd asd11 111 11ss'
  ^

Second character is “A“. In this case, the if statement results in alpha_count += 1. In other words: The string contains 1 letter.

Third time the for is looped:

' Abs3 asdasd asd11 111 11ss'
   ^

… is a letter. Thus: alpha_count += 1 = 2.

The for statement loops through the whole string before revealing that the string contains: 14 letters and 8 digits.
